Good morning, this is Central Medic 9. We're down to your facility, non-emergent, with that 82-year-old female coming from the field. She's complaining today is going to be respiratory distress. She was seeing the facility last week and was told she had a bunch of fluids on our lungs and was sent home with Lasix and potassium. Today, staff reported increased work of breathing. The patient isn't complaining of anything right now, but she just registered to be pretty short of breath. She had crackles in all fields, her lungs are pretty wet. She's working pretty hard to breathe. I've got her on BITAP right now, and she seems to be tolerating it well. Last set of vital signs, I've got a blood pressure of 104 over 67.
